"Phillip shared her thoughts on CNN's Table for Five on Saturday morning. Honestly, it's not unfair to say, if President Obama is going to write a whole post about a peace deal, maybe he should acknowledge the president who brokered it, she said. Her comment comes two days after Obama posted on X, saying, we should all be encouraged and relieved that an end to the conflict is within sight."
"Jamal Simmons, the former communications director for former Vice President Kamala Harris, agreed with Phillip, saying, If Donald Trump gets a peace deal, he deserves the credit. But he then said the next step is also critical, which he argued is some sort of self-determination for the people who live in Gaza and more security for the people who live in Israel."
"Their comments come a more than two years after Hamas terrorists broke into Israel and killed 1,200 people and took hundreds of hostages. While Obama may not have been in the mood to give Trump credit, hundreds of thousands of people in Tel Aviv on Saturday shared their appreciation for the president by breaking into chants of Thank you, Trump! during a rally."
Abby Phillip criticized Barack Obama for not acknowledging Donald Trump's role in brokering a reported peace deal between Israel and Hamas. Obama posted on X expressing encouragement that an end to the conflict is within sight but did not mention Trump. Trump had announced a deal to return 48 hostages held in Gaza, with 20 of those believed to be alive. Donald Trump Jr. criticized Obama for omitting credit, and Jamal Simmons said Trump deserves acknowledgment while urging that next steps include Gaza self-determination and greater security for Israel. Massive Tel Aviv crowds chanted in support of Trump.
